Summary: Since 2007 the German “Network Educational Science” has offered the students of five universities (Kaiserslautern, Koblenz-Landau, Mainz and Trier) in the area of Rhineland-Palatinate the opportunity to study educational science. In addition to campus-based events the students also have access to online courses at the partner universities in the federal state. The main goal of the network is the professional exchange and mutual recognition of selected courses. In order to achieve maximum benefits for all participants qualitative and quantitative minimum requirements have been arranged to ensure the quality of teaching. This article provides information on the educational policy background, presents the collaborative arrangements between the participating universities and reflects the exchange in university life on the basis of the hybrid (blended learning) course “Media-Education-Online”.
